I think you might need a couple of history lessons.

This is worth watching all six minutes, but Jon Stewart really gets into Joe Biden at about the two-minute mark.

In line with your "logic" it follows that someone who posts racist and xenophobic crap is in no position to call anyone a racist.

I find it quite paradoxical that you are defending a well known racist who helped to divide my country at a very critical point in our history.  It is your ancestors that played a major part in establishing slavery here and in many other parts of the world while hypocritically outlawing it in your homeland at the same time.

And ignoring the main point.

But then again you are part of the: keep racism alive industry©.  Keep the parties fighting amongst themselves by stirring the pot so that nothing gets settled and the parties who benefit from the unrest keep getting the money to solve a problem that you try to keep alive so that the money to solve it keeps on comin' in.  A vicious cycle, but that is how it works and why it is not in the stakeholders interest to solve it and keep it going instead.
That is the job description of an Agent Provocateur after all.  Maybe I should start calling you Agent Orange.  

Funny, it does kinda match the hue of your avatar as of late.

Of course, there's always some baser nefarious intent to be found in those parties. There's a sudden onset of profound blindness when it's much, much closer to home.

Everything can be made "to be about money" with a bit of gymnastics. Including you arguing in this particular topic. Not really an argument, though. A distraction. On top of a distraction.

It's about $$$.  Follow the money ... Therein lies the motives of both of the parties you cite above.

Racism is big business.  Solve it and all that money goes away.
